QuickMath
http://www.quickmath.com/
This web site uses Mathematica to quickly solve problems submitted by users.
Use the menu on the left side to select problem types.
The Integrator (Solving Integrals)
http://www.integrals.com
The Integrator is a web interface to Mathematica 3.0. The heart of The Integrator
is Mathematica's built-in Integrate function--the same one you use when you
access Mathematica directly. When you type in an integral, The Integrator's
web server sends a MathLink message to the Mathematica kernel, which then does
the integral using the built-in Integrate function. The result is sent via MathLink
from the kernel to the Mathematica front end, which produces typeset output.
This output then returns to the kernel, where it is embedded in a web page using
the Mathematica Symbolic HTML package.
Mathematical
and Educational Quotation Server at Westfield State College - Dr. Julian
Fleron
http://www.wsc.ma.edu/math/faculty/fleron/quotes/

quotation databases.
Mathematicians of the African
Diaspora
http://www.math.buffalo.edu/mad/
"In Mathematics, more than any other field of study, have we heard proclamations
and statements similar to, 'The Negro is incapable of succeeding.' Ancient and
present achievements contradict such statements. One of the purposes of this
web site is to exhibit the inaccuracy of those proclamations by exhibiting the
accomplishments of the peoples of Africa and the African Diaspora within the
Mathematical Sciences."
